We were not designed to live in this world of deception, lust, judgment, and greed. We were made for freedom, adventure, the infinite, to live freely, openly, honestly and uninhibited. Given the reality of life on earth, leaving ourselves too vulnerable, too exposed to all the selfishness and greed is simply not a viable survival option. All of us eventually have to put up our guard and run for cover. We close ourselves in, put up walls and when that happens, we cover up much of our intended greatness. These “coverings” we feel forced to place over our hearts, minds, spirits and bodies are the Fig Leaves of our lives. Drop the Fig Leaf takes a very straightforward look at these fig leaves, what lies behind them, how did they get there and most importantly, how to remove them. We will look at what’s at stake, what’s on the other side of the fig-leaves, what was intended for us all along, and how we can fight back and ultimately win the greatest battle of our lives. Get ready for an exhilarating, eye opening and life changing journey - The battle for our original and natural freedom.

Privileged man! Evolution-forsaken baboon! Hylo-Idealism asserts that the origin of man has to be sought in the vesiculo-neurine of his hemispherical ganglia, and that even ingratitude is a phenomenon of atavism. Psychical Research is a misnomer for Pseusmatical Research. Modern Idealism is the great ally of Materialism. Their conclusions are so far stretched, that they both converge in their atheism and pessimism. The “scientific” union of Materialism and Idealism takes place in grey matter, affirms Dr. Lewins. New philosophies are the spawn of overworked intellect. They keep sprouting like mushrooms from their mycelium after a rainy morning — interminable, outlandish, multisyllabled, and multicipital. While we tearfully beg Dr. Lewins, in the interests of humanity, to have pity on his poor readers, we shall fight the usurper “Solipsism” in favour of the legitimate King of the Universe — Egoism. Hylo-Idealism is at odds with Hylo-Ideaism. Since Dr. Lewins regards consciousness as a function of the nerve-tissue, he is an uncompromising materialist. If apart from brain there is no Ego, no external world, what then is the brain itself — this solitary object in a void universe? On the one hand, matter is asserted; on the other, matter is denied. The Vedantins symbolise Cosmic Duality by Logos and Mulaprakriti, i.e., Universal Spirit and Noumenon of Matter. The latter is the metaphysical basis of the intelligent operations in Nature. The orthodox concept of God is not, as Dr. Lewins contends, a myth or phantasm of the brain; it is an individualised ray of the all-pervading Logos, the inner light of which is blurred by the fog of lower minds. Modern Idealism is based upon gigantic paradoxes and even contradictions in terms. Venus, the morning star, was created before the sun and the moon — metaphorically, not astronomically. Venus-Aphrodite is one with the Astarte-Astoreth, the moon-goddess of generation presiding at human birth, just as Jehovah is the god of generation, foremost of all. Astoreth, as a planet, is one with Lucifer, the Morning Star. Like modern Spiritualism, Hylo-Idealism is transcendental Materialism. No man can be at once a Materialist and an Idealist, and remain consistent. The new school teaches that brain is the Creator of the Universe and originator of consciousness; that in it alone all our ideas are born, and that, apart from it, nothing has real existence, everything being illusion. By denying the Vedantic idea of non-separateness, the Hylo-Idealists vitiate every one of their arguments. The real “I” which thinks, feels, and acts is a ray of Absolute Consciousness, which is no “consciousness.”

As a break from their ordained labors, what might the Muses today do on their lunch hour? This collection of witty, shrewd, and imaginative essays addresses interdisciplinary topics that range widely from Shakespeare, to psychoanalysis, to the practice of higher education today. With the ease born of deep knowledge, Marjorie Garber moves from comical journalistic quirks (“Fig Leaves”) to the curious return of myth and ritual in the theories of evolutionary psychologists (“Ovid, Now and Then”). Two themes emerge consistently in Garber’s latest exploration of symptoms of culture. The first is that to predict the “next big thing” in literary studies we should look back at ideas and practices set aside by a previous generation of critics. In the past several decades we have seen the reemergence of—for example—textual editing, biography, character criticism, aesthetics, and philology as “hot” new areas for critical intervention. The second theme expands on this observation, making the case for “cultural forgetting” as the way the arts and humanities renew themselves, both within fields and across them. Although she is never represented in traditional paintings or poetry, a missing Muse—we can call her Amnesia—turns out to be a key figure for the creation of theory and criticism in the arts.

Nothing that God created is the source of our human temptation. To the contrary! The human body is the crown of God's creation—consummated by his declaration that it was good. That God’s people are unable to view the body without sinning is not an indictment of the body itself, but of the immaturity of the post-modern evangelical mind. We live in a culture whose inhabitants spend billions of dollars a year to see each other naked on internet sites and in pornographic films, yet are often uncomfortable changing in front of each other in locker rooms or even being seen in a swimsuit on the beach. Could it be that we have so profoundly fused the image of the exposed body with sexual gratification that there is no context left for it to be laid bare without evoking either shame or arousal? In That Famous Fig Leaf, Chad Thompson explores the spiritual implications of the physical body and, surprisingly, uncovers a new kind of freedom from sexual addiction along the way. Chad critiques the Christian purity movement for conflating purity with prudery, and reveals that changing how we esteem our bodies has the power to heal the hypersexualized body consciousness of our culture.

Why does the pacifist movement of the first few centuries so quickly become an organization that supports emperors and finds reasons for fighting? ? What leads the Church to formulate just war principles only to abandon them when in pursuit of heretics and infidels? ? What impact did two world wars have on Christian thinking? ? Why have the churches in more recent years and a more secular age apparently taken a more cautious approach to war? These are the sort of questions this absorbing book sets out to answer. It makes a unique and intriguing contribution to the literature published to mark the centenary of the outbreak of the Great War in August 2014.

In the well-known fairytale about the Emperors new clothes by H C Andersen the deception about the Emperor’s new clothes is subscribed to by the entire adult world. But the children see through it. The emperor was naked and did not know it. The story pinpoints the massive vanity and self delusion that we as men are capable of. It is the front page news of every daily paper, every day. Since the dawn of time man has been hiding from God because he knows that he is naked. His attempts to hide that nakedness has created a thousand forms of “fig leaves”, but there is always a glitch that shows his real and very guilty self. As ignored and downgraded as the Bible may be, it still tells the story of man’s fall and his possible restoration. The imagery about that and templates for it are all in that library of God’s interaction with man. That is what this book is about. Or if you like: “When everything else has gone wrong: read the instructions.” Teddy Donobauer has studied men and male hood and the Bible for over fifty years. He knows himself and male frailty in depth. He speaks out of his own journey through life and hopes that his quest for reality would be useful to his “brothers in arms.”

In Teddy Donobauer’s first book, Adam, There is a Glitch in Your Fig Leaf!, he discusses the “fig leaves” men try to hide behind. He shares how the success rate is unimpressive, for sooner or later, they are discovered. Some storm or another will rip away the disguise, and they will stand there naked. Contrary to the title, this sequel, Adam, Let Go of Your Fig Leaf, There is a Storm Brewing, presents a call to all men to do the opposite: let go of your fig leaves. But first, Donobauer explains, you need to see them as such and see what they stand for. Through personal testimony and Bible scripture, Donobauer delivers the message that unless you are saved by him, you will not be with him. When you know yourself as being saved, you will be where he is, in time and eternity. But the purpose for the offer of salvation is not to populate heaven with former sinners, but to populate earth with saints in the making.
